3.61) How can I have more than 128 X windows clients?

When you get the following errors, you've run out of X sockets.

	Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server
	Xlib: maximum number of clients reached

By default, the X server has a limit of just 128. In order to increase this limit, you need to run at least Solaris 8 or an earlier release with the Xserver patch applies that fixes bug:

4185418 the X server should support more connections

Then change the Xservers configuration file and add the "-clients 1024" option to the X commandline.
